Skuzzy,
Thanks for the info.  "Services" is now pinned to my Start Menu next to "Windows Update" so I can turn Auto-Update and BITS on/off when I check for updates.  I am going to wait awhile before installing SP2.

I use dialup on Earthlink from western NY state. As long as I check my connection to make sure I'm not linking thru 'sprintlink' I seem to be ok. Of course I'd assume some dialup ISPs are 'better' than others, imo.
